Zhang Yang's life is actually very difficult, if Lu Bu doesn't send someone to contact him again, he plans to take risks. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

At the beginning, when He Jin was still alive, Zhang Yang was ordered by the general to recruit troops in Bingzhou. The general is the commander-in-chief of later generations, and Zhang Yang, who was ordered to run errands for the commander-in-chief, has a status much higher than Zhang Liao.

However, this is of little use.

Zhang Yang had no choice but to recruit 4,000 men and horses in Bingzhou, but the news of He Jin's killing reached Shangdang, and Zhang Yang immediately became an ownerless person. At this time, many bandits appeared in the territory of Shangdang near Taihang Mountain, and Zhang Yang simply took the 4,000 men and horses to suppress the bandits in order not to disperse the team.

In less than two months, the mountain bandits were wiped out by Zhang Yangqing.

However, maintaining an army requires money and food, and Zhang Yang is like a rootless duckweed in Shangdang, and Shangdang is too guarded to support his own troops, so he is wary of him everywhere, and even secretly instructs large families in Shangdang not to provide grain, grass and money to Zhang Yang's troops, intending to drive Zhang Yang out of Shangdang County through this non-violent and non-cooperative way.

Although Zhang Yang's personality is benevolent, he is not made of wood and clay. He has 4,000 men under him who follow him every day to eat and drink, and if he leaves it alone, these 4,000 soldiers who have lost their backbone will become new bandits and bandits in the blink of an eye! For the sake of these 4,000 soldiers, Zhang Yang prepared to besiege Huguan County, the seat of the Shangdang Governance, and pulled out the hateful Taishou and killed him.

Zhang Liao patiently listened to Zhang Yangde's complaints, thought for a moment, and dissuaded: "Huguan County is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and it is not only difficult to win if you rashly lead the army to attack, but it may ruin your reputation." ”

Zhang Yang is a person who is willing to listen to persuasion, and he thinks what Zhang Liao said is very reasonable. In case of failure in the attack on Huguan, not only will the troops be lost, but it will also be despised by people, and it will be even more difficult to raise food and grass in the Shangdang in the future.

"What if you don't attack the Huguan?" Zhang Yang asked Zhang Liao with a sad face.

Zhang Liao thought for a moment and suggested: "This matter is easy! It was indeed difficult for 4,000 men to attack Huguan County, which was high and deep in the river, but it was not difficult to disperse into several units to attack the manors where the rich gentry were hiding. As long as you pretend to be a bandit and a bandit, and grab so many rich and wealthy families, the party will definitely come to beg you to help suppress the bandits. ”

The news that Lu Bu was appointed as a cavalry lieutenant had not yet arrived, and before Zhang Yang came to the party, his position was Sima of other armies, so Zhang Liao called him Sima.

The suggestion provided by Zhang Liao to Zhang Yang was to pretend to be bandits and robbers of the big landlords in Shangdang, which was much less risky than directly attacking Huguan County, the seat of Shangdang governance, and could also obtain double benefits. One of the benefits is the income from pretending to be bandits and robbers, and the other income is the benefit fee for restoring the status of officials and soldiers and sending troops to suppress bandits on behalf of the party government.

Zhang Yang felt that this method was very good, so he divided the 4,000 soldiers into eight shares, about 500 people each, hid the banner and logo of the official army, changed into the clothes of mountain bandits and bandits, and went to Changzi County, Qianmuju, Tunliu, Guyuan, Tongtao, Xiangyuan, Luxian, Liting and other places to plunder.

The hundreds of light horsemen brought by Zhang Liao were also scattered among these eight teams. According to Zhang Liao's suggestion, these eight raiding teams were all led by officers, and they were selected to attack those rich families who did not have a good reputation at night, and if the resistance was not fierce, they tried not to kill people. On the contrary, the door will be destroyed, and there will be no living mouth!

In the next ten days, bandits in Shangdang swarmed, and messengers from all over the country who reported officials and asked for help flocked to Huguan County, blocking the water blocked by Taishou Mansion.

Zhang Yang, who had already looted enough military supplies, quietly gathered half of his troops, and with the assistance of Zhang Liao and Li Feng, he moved south with men and horses and supplies to Tianjing Pass, twenty miles south of Gaodu County. The other half of the troops continued to scatter, increasing the pressure on the Shangdang Taishou in Huguan City.

From Hanoi to Shangdang, you need to pass through Taihang, and this Tianjing Pass is the pass at the northern end of Taihang.

Not long after Zhang Yang and his troops were stationed at Tianjing Pass, an envoy sent by Shangdang Taishou arrived. Shangdang Taishou has been forced by the rich families in the counties to jump into the river, and he does not dare to let the county soldiers stationed in Huguan go out of the city to suppress the bandits, for fear that Zhang Yang will take advantage of the weakness to enter. Shangdang Taishou also knew that he had overdone some things in order to get rid of Zhang Yang before. The envoy came this time to bring a message for the party guard, hoping that Zhang Yang would send troops to suppress the bandits like last time.

Zhang Yang did not speak directly to the envoy, and the person who spoke was Zhang Liao.

Zhang Liao said to the envoy with a cold face: "Now that the three princes and nine kings in the court are all in danger, a small county guard dares to look coldly at the recruiting envoy sent by the imperial court, have you forgotten how the word 'death' is written?" ”

The envoy was frightened by Zhang Liao's threatening words of Chi Guoguo, and he apologized vigorously and admitted his mistake.

"Go back and tell you that Taishou who doesn't know how to die, if we can prepare the grain, grass and military resources needed for the winter of 10,000 troops, our department can ensure that Shangdang County will be protected from bandits and bandits in the future!"

Zhang Liao's appearance was already majestic and resolute, coupled with his burly figure and full of anger in his speech, which made the messenger feel very frightened. After Zhang Liao finished saying the conditions, the envoy left in a panic.

Zhang Yang, who was hidden behind the curtain, had seen the whole process of Zhang Liao's negotiation with others, and felt that he was much stronger than his unsuccessful subordinates.

Actually, Zhang Yang is a bit demanding, just ask the generals in the world, how many people can be compared with Zhang Wenyuan?

When Zhang Liao was busy opening a "sub-base" for Lu Bu in the Shangdang, the situation in Luoyang changed again.

Dong Zhuo, who had just shown the appearance of a virtuous minister, began to mess around.

He coerced Empress Dowager He to depose the young emperor Liu Bian in front of the courtiers, and set up Liu Xie, the king of Chenliu, as the emperor! Empress Dowager He refused to agree, but as a result, he directly asked people to break into the harem and put a knife on Empress Dowager He's neck, if Empress Dowager He didn't do anything to abolish the establishment, Dong Zhuo would kill her. In the end, Empress Dowager He compromised, because she sadly found that none of the ministers stood up to stop Dong Zhuo.

As a foreign relative, the He family has interfered in the government for so many years, and since He Jin and He Miao were killed, they have finally tasted the bitter fruits of their own brewing.

Not long after the young emperor Liu Bian was deposed, Dong Zhuo did another surprising thing.

He still sent people into the palace and poisoned the Empress Dowager He.

The emperor was replaced by Dong Zhuo, and the Empress Dowager He was also killed by Dong Zhuo, and no one in the court dared to speak, so Dong Zhuo became domineering.

At this turbulent time, Lu Bu, who was originally recuperating from his injuries, suddenly walked out of the camp gate. It seemed that his injuries were almost healed.

Lu Bu came to meet Dong Zhuo and thanked Dong Zhuo for his kindness. In order to show his obedience, Lu Bu burned half of the arsenal gate keys, and the complete Taicang gate keys were brought to Dong Zhuo.

There are 100,000 Xiliang troops pouring into Luoyang City, and the food is almost not enough, Lu Bu doesn't want to watch the Xiliang army change from humans to beasts, so he has to do something.
